Honestly, I find ansible quite simple and straight forward. You don't have to use third party playbooks and using 'autoenv' I achieved a very straight forward, simple, dynamic setup.
- mbubb 9y agoAgree - not sure what the advantage is. I understand bootstrapping can be a minor irritation (and I dont have a great way to do it 100% auto) Dynamic inventory scripts + ansible-playbook -k -u root .... can do the same thing for bootstrapping. How is this an advantage over that?
